Not another smoke thread :(
Discussion
Haven't had it running for nearly a month.
Battery was flat, had to boost it. I definitely have a power steering fluid leak as the pump was whining, but there was no smoke from under the bonnet.

This video shows the exhaust smoke after a 30min idling session followed by a brisk 15min drive.
Thoughts/Opinions encouraged.

Breathers on rocker covers blocked up? Unscrew the metal one on the driver's side to remove. It should be a wire gauze that isn't corroded and blocked. Use carb cleaner/petrol/solvent and pour through to check. The passenger side is at the rear of the rocker cover. It pulls off and check it too is clear.
Unscrew the oil filler cap and place it back on top. Does the pressure from the engine blow it off or up? Place your hand over the hole. Does the pressure try and push your hand off. If it does the engine is over pressurising the crankcase.
